1. For What It’s Worth 286
Days
It’s Monday morning once again. Monday, Monday. Funny how that seems to happen pretty much
weekly. All I know is, 40 more weekends to go. I think I’ll try to save up my
vacation days so I won’t have to return back to work after the holiday
break. That will be a nice feeling not
to have to come back in here! I can
hardly wait for that day!
This weekend I did accomplish a few chores around the
house. Got some laundry done (of
course), charged up my auxiliary battery system in Linus, took Snoopy for a
walk, cleaned my rifle, and also got the new iOs 7.1 operating software
downloaded and installed on my iphone. It
seems like I can never do it with my own Mifi Hotspot wireless internet
connection. I again had to go to the
tavern and use their Wifi, which still took some serious time.
I did receive a couple of inputs from our readers about some
en-route destinations for our road trip. Thanks to Jim R and Rhino for their
input. That is exactly the kind of
feedback we have been requesting/begging for. We have added them both to our
ever-growing list of places to visit. We
encourage more input from you folks! Please!
We really need your help!
Are you aware that the state of Utah has five National Parks
across the southern part of the state?
We could probably spend an entire month just there! There is also a huge Recreation Area there,
the Glen Canyon Nat’l Rec Area. We can
tell that this section of our road trip we will be meandering here and there
for weeks at a time! That is what it is
all about anyways, right? J No timeline for much of the trip, which will
be awesome! We are hoping to visit all
of you friends along the way. Make sure you guys provide us with your addresses
so we can plan accordingly. A hot shower
is always a welcomed luxury when you are on the road. Maybe even a soak in a
warm tub? J
I know along the way I’ll need to find Snoopy places to get
her all cleaned up. I usually take her to Pet Smart for her flea baths and all
her grooming needs. I believe they are
all over the US, which is a good thing. She is in their computer database so
they know what meds she needs and what services she usually gets. She gets all
cleaned up every month or two I guess. More often if she is stinky or she
crawls under Linus and gets all dirty and greasy. She does that a lot when it
is hot outside and she seeks the cool shade. They once put ribbons on her ears.
We put an abrupt stop to that nonsense.
She is just not that kind of girl.
That kind of thing really bugs her and she will mess with it until it is
gone from her life. She is a lot like me
I guess!
When Snoopy wants to jump on the couch to be with me, she
will sit on the floor and she will wiggle and wiggle her backside and look me
in the eye, waiting for my invite to be with me. Sometimes she gets so excited
she will give a high-pitched yelp that will clear any ear blockage you might
have. I will try to ignore her but most
of the time she will have none of that. She will wiggle and squirm more than a
three-year old getting his first haircut, until I tell her it’s okay to come up
or no. When she hears no she usually will just sit next to the couch and look
up at me. Then sometimes I just can’t resist that face of hers and I have to
invite her up. She knows she needs to
lay down when she comes up, so she usually does so without me telling her, and
sometimes she needs to be reminded about three or four times. She does tend to get a bit excited at times! J
I wish I could get her to play with toys, because then she
would use up some of that excessive energy of hers. Imagine of she would just chase a ball or a
Frisbee for a little while. She would get her exercise, I would get some also
and she could burn off some of that excessive energy that she has stored up
inside of her. If only… J
I’m getting kind of hungry but it will be about two hours
until I’ll be getting any lunch today. I
need to start eating a small breakfast again during the morning. Just skipping
it I tend to get headaches even though I could use to drop a few extra
pounds. I guess this is not the good way
to get this accomplished.
